Hi i`m in UK .. i was taking my meds for anxiety from a Romanian GP from Romania but i moved to UK for 3 months now . UK GP said they closed the clinic because of the virus and they cant give me the prescription by phone. And i have to wait 2 weeks until i can get an apointment ( wich i know is bullshit, they said that just to get rid of me.) I am taking this medicine for more than 2 years now and i can`t stop taking them suddently .I tried to change my GP to one that is open and it takes 2 weeks to transfer my data from old gp to new gp .. So still no option . What shoould i do ? I`m so sad now above all the stress CoronaVirus is creating. I don`t want to go trough bad days again.. I feel like there is no hope ..

Do anyone knows what should i do ? I really need that prescription..

What meds do you need?

Call 111 and ask to see an out of hours doctor. It’s normally located at your nearest hospital . Hours are unsociable , but at least it’s an appointment

same boat as you thought I had a full sleeve checked tonight and I had only 3 left hoping to get emergency ones to tie me over call your doc first thing in the morning.

Hello :-)

Yes call 111

Explain everything

We know this virus is causing disruptions but when someone has been taking a tablet as long as you have they cannot just stop them

They should help :-)

Please let us know how you get on :-)

Take care x

Can't they fax the script to the pharmacy. Here in the US things are becoming more flexible to prevent this from happening. At least with my team it has.

I hope you get this taken care of quickly.

Stay safe
